MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WDNews) — The Alabama Supreme Court has issued an execution order for death row inmate Anthony Todd Boyd, convicted in the 1993 kidnapping and murder of Gregory Huguley in Talladega County.
On July 30, 2025, the court authorized the Alabama Department of Corrections to carry out Boyd’s sentence within a time frame set by Governor Kay Ivey. In a letter issued August 18, Ivey scheduled the execution window to begin at 12:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 23, 2025, and expire at 6:00 a.m. on Friday, October 24, 2025.
Boyd, who has been on death row for decades, was convicted of capital murder in the brutal killing of Huguley, who was abducted, bound, and burned alive over a $200 drug debt.
Governor Ivey stated she has no current plans to grant clemency but noted she retains the authority to issue a reprieve or commutation if necessary before the execution is carried out.
The Alabama Supreme Court’s order, now paired with Ivey’s directive, constitutes the official death warrant.
